Tired

Today

I’m
wind chimes
Slack
on a hot summer day
with no breeze
to dance with

The cup of coffee
you abandoned
half full
Resting
on
the bookshelf

A yo yo spun out
That’s suppose to
Unfurl
And walk the dog
But instead
lies still
string
broken

It hurts
like the impossible
buttercup
Pushing up between
the cracks
Trampled
by clumsy feet

Voice
Silenced
Existence
Forgotten
Joy
Broken

Courage
crushed
